Deep inside
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Michael P. Johnson
Other Poems by Michael P. Johnson


              Deep inside

It’s strange what happens deep inside

When one has turned from sin and shame

Upon the wind we seem to ride

Whilst singing loud Christ Jesus’ name

 

There’s something warm down deep inside

The oddest feeling floods the soul

The Comforter has come to guide

To purge all filth and make us whole

 

God’s righteousness blossoms inside`

Healing one’s flesh, showing The Way

Curtailing self, obstructing pride

Consuming darkness whilst we pray

 

The living Christ dwells deep inside

God’s living Son’s eternal Fire

Within who’s hand we children hide

Growing stronger, climbing higher

 

Amazing love thrives deep inside

Who died yet lives to set us free

His healing hands reach far and wide

Opening eyes life’s truth to see

 

The fruits of prayer grow ripe inside

Brilliant correctness changing hearts 

Breaking the chains that have us tied

Repelling swift satanic darts

 

God’s Holy Breath evokes inside

Upon The Way to Heaven’s Door

Birthing power turning life’s tide

With peace to live as none before

 

A joyful heart beats deep inside

A soul made clean through Jesus’ love

Made pure in blood a grateful bride

Aspires to join her Groom above….

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
